“MOMENTS”

by S Roman Ahsan

You step outside the hall after taking your exam and walk down the stairs. It really feels great that the test went OK, and you look forward to celebrating it with your close buddies. Suddenly you hear your girlfriend laughing. When you turn around, your heart sinks when you see her arm in arm with your best friend. Your joy turns into profound sorrow as your dreams shatter and it feels as if your world has ended. You fail to accept this betrayal especially because you are a decent guy. Tormented and torn apart, you start walking slowly towards home. In the privacy of your room, you turn on your computer and access Youtube.com. The song “All out of love” by Air Supply dedicated to heartbreakers catches your attention and you turn on the volume with your head down on the desk while your innocent eyes shed tears. Suddenly, the phone rings. It’s your cousin who wants you to accompany him to a music event at the Wang Theater. So what are you waiting for? Let bygones be bygones and go with the flow of time!
